Too much race-baiting still going on

For all those who worry about future violence against young black men by a racist society, especially now in the wake of the George Zimmerman trial, may I suggest a look at the stats for just one second.

Black men are hurting and killing fellow black men by a ratio not even close to any other racial group hurting young black males. In Chicago for example, on a daily basis young black men are being gunned down by other black men at an alarmingingly high ratio. Naturally I don't understand why Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, et. al., aren't addressing this issue with the same gusto they are trying to stir up racial tensions in our country by protesting a verdict that was supervised in a court of law without one shred of evidence that race had anything to do with Trayvon Martin's tragic death.

I fear that race baiters make too much money from racism, therefore they see racism everywhere. No healing can happen in this environment as long as our culture/society gives the race baiters a loud microphone and a TV interview without a counterbalanced honest debate.

Resident touts playhouse performances

I just wanted to let you know that we have attended all three plays at the playhouse, and all were amazing! We used our credit card each time and have never had any problems.

We have also taken lots of our friends and family, none of which have been overcharged. The shows were amazing, and I will continue to recommend them to everyone. I can't wait for the next one!

Resident concerned over neighborhood theft

Question! Is stealing a horse still a hanging offense?

Friday morning, the residence of 1704 Desert Dawn Drive, Santa Clara, noticed that their horse was missing. This is a neighborhood watch village, but as of this date no sighting or knowledge of the horse's whereabouts has come forth. If anyone spots the horse, please notify the Santa Clara police referring to incident 13SCI1937.

The 6-month-old gray colt with black mane and tail, made of aluminum, was dearly loved and admired, but comes with a very high cost to whoever now has him due to the internal feelings of the heart.

The honest owners of the horse sincerely hope he will find his way back the same way he left.
